| .SH NAME |
| mcomp \- Compares two files using mtools |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .\" The command line |
| .B mcomp |
| .I file-on-floppy |
| .I local-file |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .B mcomp |
| compares two files, the first one must be on a floppy disk so it can |
| be accessed via \fBmtools\fR. |
| It is not strictly necessary on Debian GNU/Linux, because the diffutils |
| \fBcmp\fR(1) program provides the same capability after copying the |
| file locally with |
| |
| .B mcopy |
| .I file |
| .I destination |
| |
| but this utility is provided in the mtools package for other platforms and |
| is retained here for completeness. |
